Solution

The correct option is B If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
Hind brain consists of cerebellum located dorsally to medulla oblongate and pons varolii. It contains centres for maintenance of posture and equilibrium of the body and for the muscle tone. All activities of the cerebellum are involuntary but may involve learning in their early stage.
Therefore both are true but reason is not the correct explanation.
